flash LED project not run on TMS320C2000™ Experimenter Kit Overview

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28335, CONTROLSUITE

Hi,

I am new to this kit (docking board with F28335 card). I have learned it with several video, application notes etc. This kit does not include a power supply. It uses USB cable to power it up.

When I connect the USB cable to PC which has CCS 5.5.0, it does not show the options of online search driver or on local computer search (This question is proposed by the experiment kit brochure). The LD3 does not blink in this state.

I use CCS 5.5.0 90 days evaluation software. XDS100v1 is successfully connected with test connection test OK.

When I load FlashingLeds-F28035 project with the XDS100v1 target file, it looks like normal. The source symbol file shows, the start arrow stops at the main(), but it does not make LD3 blink after running. It does not stop at a breakpoint. It can step through in disassembly code for several tens lines. It will not stop as in a C code running mode then.

In fact, I have tried two target files: No.1 is "Experimenter's Kit - Delfino F28335"; No.2 is "TMS320F28335". Both have the same results of no LD3 blink.

I do not see any jumper setting procedures on the kit brochure, but on the brochure, jumper J8 is connected (There is no jumper in the kit though).

Could you help on what is wrong?

Thanks,

  • I just see a relevant post on compiler version, but I think my case is not the same.

    The present version is:

    "compiler version" = "TI v6.2.0" 

     

    Any clue on this problem?

  • Robert,

    You mention that you are using the project "FlashingLeds-F28035".  Is this correct?

    Because you are using a F28335 controlCARD, you should be using the project "FlashingLeds-F28335".  I just tried this project with an F28335 controlCARD on my side and the controlCARD's LD3 does blink for me.

    This project can help you understand the C2000 and also understand the software inside many of C2000's application kits. 

    However, please do be aware that there are many other examples for the F28335 that may help you:
    \controlSUITE\device_support\f2833x\v133\DSP2833x_examples_ccsv4

    (I would not be concerned that a driver install warning did not come up when you plugged in the experimenter kit; several of the other things you mention are also likely to not be a concern)


    Thank you,
    Brett
